About Tolaposh

A Lagos workroom that starts with your words.

Tolaposh began with one cutting table and a sketchbook, drawing outfits for friends who could describe exactly what they wanted but never found it on any rail. Today our Lekki workroom has illustrators, tailors and a stoning team, and every order still starts the same way: you talk, we draw.

"In Nigeria, what you wear to a ceremony tells the family who you are. We take that seriously."

— Tola Adeola, Founder & Lead Couturier

How We Work

What we hold ourselves to

flag

Made in Nigeria

Every outfit is cut and sewn in Lagos. We buy aso-oke from Iseyin weavers, adire from Abeokuta dyers and lace from merchants we have known for years.

Approve before you pay

No deposit until you're happy with the sketch. You see what you're paying for before a single yard is cut.

event_available

On time for the occasion

We plan backwards from your event date and won't take an order we can't finish with a week to spare.

photo_camera

No need to ask "how far?"

Photos at every stage on WhatsApp and in your portal, so you always know where your outfit is.
